Comcast Business: Delivering Reliable, Scalable
Communications Solutions to Connecticut's Business Community
C
omcast is constantly
investing in new
technologies to
help foster economic
development and drive
competition, innovation
and value for business
customers in Connecticut
.
The company has spent decades
investing in the necessary infrastruc-
ture to make its advanced network
broadly available to businesses of all
sizes — from small organizations with
only a few employees to large enter-
prises with offices located across the
country. As a result, Comcast offers its
Comcast Business Internet, multi-Giga-
bit Ethernet, TV and Voice customers
a reliable, fully diverse and scalable
solution that can accommodate virtu-
ally any business demand.
Capacity and performance are
increasingly becoming the two main
engines driving all businesses. In Con-
necticut, Comcast continues to proac-
tively expand its vast fiber network and
focus on helping organizations grow,
diversify and prepare for the future by
providing scalable bandwidth that can
be adjusted as business needs change.
For example, at Chase Collegiate
in Waterbury, the school was facing
a challenge as the "Bring Your Own
Device" (BYOD) trend grew among
students, many of whom were bring-
ing their mobile devices to campus.
The school needed reliable, scalable
bandwidth in large volume to support
this demand, and found it with Com-
cast Business. In addition to BYOD, the
school was utilizing "a variety of new
learning technologies like streaming
video to classrooms, digital black-
boards, online teacher support, video
conferencing, and Web 2.0 applica-
tions," said Scott Temple, director of
technology at Chase Collegiate. The
